Very clean & modern inside. Advance warning of the scaffolding around it would have been good as woken very early by scaffolders moving pipes. A reduced rate while work is in progress would have been fair.

What a delightful motel and such friendly and helpful staff. We were glad we chose this property. It was convenient for walking downtown to the Rugby Museum and lots of shops. The room was well appointed and my husband said it had the most comfortable lounge chair/seating of any property we had been in during our month of travel. The kitchenette worked well for our needs and the spa tub was perfect after a long day of hiking and car travel. Would highly recommend this property for a visit to Palmerston North or as a stopover night on your way to or from Wellington.

Lovely Palmerston North motel

Excellent room, clean and comfortable. King bed, also clean and comfortable. Close to town, yet very quiet. The lady was really friendly and helpful. All facilities, except disappointed in the ev charging and parking. We selected the motel with this available, but when we got home from dinner there was only 1 park available, quite away from our unit and the charger, which was a shame. Apart from that it was excellent, would definitely recommend and would happily stay again.
